Witcher's Atelier

Chapter 253 Victor and Keira Metz

From ancient times to the present, happy times are always short, and in Professor Moreau's underground laboratory, the smiling Keira Metz is no exception.

Gradually restraining her smile, the sorceress let go of the witcher's arm and squinted at him, "Hey! Mr. Duwakin, born in the storm, Mr. Victor, who crosses the desert, don't you think you should give me an explanation about how this thick and big thing suddenly appeared?"

"Hey! What's your attitude, you woman? I, Victor, have done things all my life, why do I need to explain to you! You're still glaring at me? Believe it or not, I'll beat you hard with a stick!" The witcher thought so in his heart, and he only dared to think in his heart.

Looking down from a high position, from the collar of the hunting suit, the snow-white, small mole below the collarbone is clearly visible.

Opening the front cover of the herbal bag so that Kayla can see the action clearly, Victor reached out and took out the dissection tool, "I found this herbal bag in the ruins. It has a storage function, but it seems to be limited to my personal use."

Putting the herbal bag in the hands of the sorceress, the witcher walked to the side of the gargoyle and began to decompose the materials. It is a treasure that needs to be developed urgently. The heart of the gargoyle and the dust of the gargoyle are both named alchemical materials. The heart of the golem that controls the magic circuit is even more precious. One can boil a lot of "blizzard" potions.

As for Kayla, who is working hard to study the endless herbal bag, Victor didn't care much. Since this method was used to solve the monster, he was mentally prepared to reveal the existence of the herbal bag to her.

Anyway, you only need to keep the core secret of the incredible alchemy. It is just a limited user, similar to an ancient artifact. The temptation is strong, but not too strong. It can be used to test whether you can continue to trust the other party. Moreover, even if it is taken away, he can call it back at any time with a wave of his hand.

...

After a while, Keira came to Victor who was dissecting the object carefully and returned the herbal bag. "So this is the reason why you are fearless in Vizima - a storage container that can store Demogold products and cannot be identified by magic... Tell me, will it regenerate?"

The sorceress guessed that it would regenerate because she felt familiar when she first started using it, as if she had seen the same one before. And no matter how she tried with magic power, the feedback was ordinary, just like the herbal bag she burned with her own hands...

But she actually saw the witcher take out the dissection tools from it, as well as this stupid, big, thick and black Demogold giant sword. This extremely inconsistent phenomenon, a creation that was not magical at all, made her full of motivation for research.

He didn't even raise his head and focused on his work. He admitted calmly, "That's right! If you destroy it, it can regenerate near me."

Every word is true, but it is misleading. In fact, it doesn't matter whether it is destroyed or not. The truth is that as long as you call "Bao Lai", or even think about it, it will appear at the end of the world.

The sorceress was very satisfied with the "truth" provided by the witcher.

After he escaped from Vizima, he found many suspicious points during the investigation. Kayla quickly linked the cause and effect. She stared at his profile and said slowly: "So on the day of the bank robbery...you were...?"

With a knife, he chopped off the horn of the gargoyle. Victor turned his head and looked at Kayla.

Gorgeous facial patterns, exuding wild charm.

"I remember...

I was the Dark Knight of Vizima...

I am the friend of women!

I was...I am...Batman!"

Taking a breath of cold air, the sorceress said that her heartbeat accelerated rapidly at the domineering aura and deep blue pupils. She could not suppress the complaints in her chest. "So you are the pervert who 'walks his bird on the street and dresses strangely'!?"

Turning his face away and touching his nose, the witcher said that he did not want to talk to her.

...

"It doesn't matter who is under the mask. What matters is that my actions define me."

-Batman. "The Mystery of the Dragon Slayer"

The gargoyle was decomposed into alchemical materials and put into the herbal bag together with the dragon-slaying sword.

With his hands crossed in front of his chest, Victor stood against the wall and turned his head away from the direction of the sorceress.

Standing in the center of the cleaned hall, Kayla Metz cast a spell, and the magic lightning "crackled!" hit the four charging crystals around at the same time, opening a total of 21 portals on three floors of the teleportation hall.

Twenty-one blue circles flashed, and the portals rumbled. Kayla bent her knees slightly while holding up the non-existent skirt, "Oh, my dear Wick, forget it! I admit that I have never seen Batman, and perverts are told by others, so don't act like a child again. I promise you that I will forget about cross-dressing and strange behavior. Come quickly and use your expertise as a demon hunter to see which door is right?"

Reluctantly accepting the other party's explanation and letting go of his crossed hands, Victor activated his extraordinary five senses and walked to the center of the room to observe the 21 portals.

The portal is a standard arched door. The blue light indicates that it is fixed. There is no significant difference in the door frame pattern. The murals in between are the goddess Meliteli helping the world.

Victor has no memory of his past life about this puzzle, but his rich gaming experience makes him focus on observing the movements of the characters in the murals. He soon discovered that all the women in the murals on the first floor, the incarnations of the goddess Meliteli, were looking either left or right, except for one that was facing forward.

Considering that Professor Moreau's mission is to save his children, the answer is very simple and easy to understand. The door that Meliteli is looking at on each floor is the correct answer.

However, there is no need to explain this kind of thing. It is mysterious, so it is handsome.

Victor walked in front, followed by Kayla. The two of them passed through three layers of portals and were sent to a tunnel.

They were on high alert and moved forward step by step, but there was no obstacle next. They walked into the wide room at the end, and the lights inside were still on.

The vast space was about the size of two basketball courts. The right wall was a whole wall of bookshelves. On the left was a telescope composed of five copper pillars. In front was a complete alchemy facility including a cauldron. There were several cells in the depths, and the rest were various strange instruments whose specific uses were unknown.

The most conspicuous facility was the upright coffin of the Iron Maiden. At first glance, it was 80% similar to the mutation chamber where Captain America turned from a weak chicken to a strong man.

It felt familiar. There was no doubt that it was not wrong. This was Professor Moreau's laboratory!

Victor walked down the stairs with excitement. With his five senses fully activated, he directly picked up a crystal from the desk and the bookshelf, observed it, and walked to the copper pillar next to the telescope to embed it.

This telescope can store five video crystals. Victor filled in the two missing ones when he first arrived, and then checked the structure a little bit. He used the Alder sign to start the projection.

The sorceress, who was good at observing his words and expressions, watched all his operations after entering the hall. From his performance at the beginning of the expedition, it seemed that the witcher did not know the details of the laboratory, otherwise he would have no reason to come to him, but his current behavior clearly showed that he knew that this telescope had image storage and was missing two crystals.

There was only one reasonable explanation for this phenomenon, future vision! Wick's future vision was real!

At this time, the image began to play. Standing behind Victor, the sorceress watched the experimental review left by Professor Moreau.

The black and white image was presented in three dimensions. Professor Moreau, who wore round glasses, had wrinkles on his forehead and a thick chin, was obviously a stubborn and resilient scientist-type wizard.

Telescope Crystal One: "On a certain day of a certain month in the year 1102. Today I will start the most crucial plan of my life, which is more important than all the explorations so far, because this research is closely related to my son.

Fifteen years ago, I was attacked by a monster in the forest, and a witcher saved my life. He offered me the "Law of Accident" as a reward, but I never thought that the price would be the future fate of my son.

If I could turn back time, I would rather lose my life than hand over my only son to the witcher! So the day the witcher took my son away, I swore that I would definitely give him back to the witcher! My son is back to normal.

After years of research and preparation, I finally made a device today that allows me to study mutations. If the kind-hearted Meliteli can help me, I can find a way to reverse the mutation and let Jeroen get back to his normal life. "

Victor touched his chin, "Sure enough, the professor's starting point is not to strengthen the mutation of the witcher, but to reverse the mutation... Wait, maybe this is also a direction worth studying?"

Keira didn't speak. She was thinking about the key word "Sure enough" in Victor's words. Sure enough, Victor "had" seen this video.

Switch to Telescope Crystal 2: "The 22nd observation, although given an excessive amount of toxic substances, the research subject still has no signs of poisoning. I believe this is one of the consequences of mutation. This is a good little discovery. Mutation makes Jeroen more tolerant of toxicity. "

Victor frowned, another wizard who puts research first.

Telescope Crystal Three: "The 30th observation, mutations do not occur immediately, but appear after a period of time. To achieve complete mutations, appropriate mutagen must be used continuously.

The target's situation is not good, but I found a way to reduce the pain of mutations. Using mutagen as a base and adding protein from mutant giant centipede eggs can significantly alleviate the rejection reaction. This phenomenon is quite surprising, and mutagen will emit a dazzling luster. I can only hope that adding protein will not have strange side effects on the human body. We will know after a while."

Kayla noticed that Victor's joy when he first arrived was completely gone.

Telescope Crystal No. 4: "Observation No. 58, sometimes failure is the mother of success. I found a way to transform a certain mutagen into another mutagen with specific raw materials. This is a great scientific discovery!

In addition, I also found that the mutagen injected today almost brought the research subject to the brink of death. Then he suddenly woke up and his strength recovered rapidly. Although he did not fully recover, it was already very good to recover from the brink of death. At present, it is impossible to determine whether this phenomenon is due to the influence of mutation or pure coincidence. I must conduct further experiments."

Victor sighed. He could not demand the morality of the future from the people of today, not to mention that he lived two hundred years ago.

The last telescope crystal was activated. The professor who appeared in the image sat on the ground decadently. "Several years of experimental research and hard work have all come to nothing. I cannot achieve the goal I set. The mutations I caused in the experimental subjects are not effective for Jeroen!

I originally wanted to cure his witcher body and let him return to normal life, but it made his mutation more serious, further enhanced his speed and strength, and made him farther and farther away from humans. It seems that my son can only be a witcher in this life... I failed!

It seems it's time to leave this place and return to my dear Lidya. She might still be willing to accept me. I left the formula and mutagens in the lab, letting them fade away... just like my dream of getting my son back. "

When the scene ends, the past one hundred and seventy years ago is gone.

Keira broke the silence, "These crystal recordings show that Professor Moru wanted to neutralize the effect of the witcher's mutation, but the result was only to strengthen it. He used the egg protein of giant centipedes to cultivate mutation inducers. You are really lucky, he Your failure will look like your success!"

Victor shook his head unoptimistically, "Let's study the documents first. I doubt the precision of the experiment, and time has passed almost two hundred years. God knows whether those mutation-inducing substances can still be used!"

Pointing to the piles of information on the table, the sorceress gave the order, "Then I will study the documents, and you will inspect the environment first."

Shrugging his shoulders, this division of labor is reasonable and Victor has no objection.

Walking deeper into the wide room, the sturdy cell was not only used to imprison people, but it also seemed to have been used to imprison centipedes. The big hole in the wall was obviously "the way out that life is looking for." Observing the path of the figurines excavated by the centipede, you can't see your fingers.

Then he entered another room, used Alder's Seal to impact the crystal, and activated the fixed portal. Victor guessed that it should be Professor Moru's private passage.

The results of the trial walk were indeed direct. The witcher was teleported to the bottom of the Sansredo River. Fortunately, it was a two-way portal. He was also good at diving and returned to the laboratory dripping wet after two strokes.

after a while.

In the spacious laboratory, the sorceress set up her tent, lit a campfire inside, and let Victor come in to dry the soaked equipment, while Keira leaned on the bed and read through the experimental records.

Turning his back to the sorceress, the witcher unloaded the Udvik armor one by one.

Looking up from the document and admiring Victor's removal of armor, Keira chuckled, "You are right to be cautious. Professor Moru has broad ideas and the courage to try, but if he really follows his rough approach, I think the chance of success is probably only 30%.”

"What a coincidence, the success rate is the same as the Green Grass Trial?...Ha! I know there is a person with a 100% success rate, the white wolf──Geralt of Rivia, he will definitely succeed!"

"Hey, don't be ridiculous. You are also an alchemist. You will know when you look at the data. It is absolutely impossible for the current conclusion to be 100% successful! Besides, he is in love with Triss, so how can he have time to do experiments with you? ”

Keira's eyes were bright as she spoke, watching Victor place the last piece of leg armor carefully next to the campfire. At this time, he was only left in a soaked white singlet and shorts. They were thin and transparent, clinging tightly to his strong body, revealing his tight curves!

"Okay! It doesn't matter. You have already helped me a lot. You can go back tomorrow. Anyway, the back door is open now, so it is very convenient for me to come in again."

As he spoke, he took off his white shirt, combed his hair back, and stretched out his back muscles.

"Otherwise, let's stay here for a few days and concentrate on overcoming the difficulties! Anyway, I have enough food in the storage space. I believe your herbal bag is not a decoration, right?"

Hearing what Kayla said behind him, the words were clearly a question, but the tone was an affirmation, Victor chuckled. It’s been a while since I’ve heard her use this tone, a sorceress style that I haven’t seen for a long time.

"Okay! You are welcome to help, but what price do I have to pay for──"

His vitals were suddenly controlled, and he gasped, unable to speak at all!

Then apply soft warmth to the back.

"Shh... be quiet... just lend me the person for a few days."
